Media in your life

How I use media;
I use media in many different ways on different media levels. I mostly use media on new technology like an IPhone, IPad and a laptop. I use my phone for most things like texting, social networking sites and downloads.  The social networking sites I use are; Twitter, Instagram, and Facebook. I use social networking sites to keep in contact with friends and can also find out news around the world that is happening. I also use my phone and IPad to download music apps like ITube and YouTube.
Another media form I use is TV. I use a TV to watch On Demand and Sky Movies, music channels and different episodes like Catfish.
I don’t normally read newspapers or magazines. If I do read a magazine it is normally about fashion like ‘In Style’. As soon as I get a notification on my I have an instant reaction to look at it, to find out what the message is about.

How the media affects me;
The media doesn't have a big affect on me, but I do like to have some sort of media form around me like my phone. I like to know what’s going on around the world and with other people. I tend to use my phone more than I watch the TV because I have my phone on me at all times. Different types of media can have a negative impact because sometimes it can be a distraction from getting work done.

I think I could live without some sort of media for a few days but not for a very long period of time. It isn't the most important thing in my life.
